Like the shot but the bright rock in the foreground takes my attention away from the Heron. How would it look cropped?

Wow, that's sharp! Yep, lose the rock in the foreground, really distracts from the subject. Great colour saturation too...

Very nice. I agree, crop the rock out in front and it will be great.

Kipper, you are getting these bird shots nailed

Yeah, I'll crop out the rock tonight from the original. Then resample it. Thanks for the kind words. I'm trying to process 1-4 bird pictures a night. I have a heap of them
